Koi farmer's daughter wants to get rich

Fang Xiling was in a daze, feeling that she was being stared at by a pair of eyes. She opened her sleepy eyes and saw a six or seven-year-old girl staring at her with wide eyes.

Fang Xiling looked around, and saw a shriveled piece of animal skin and a few dry corn cobs hanging on the torn wall. The pot, there is still some sticky things in the pot, I don't know what it is.

This is all the furnishings in the whole house.

Fang Xiling looked at the little girl again, and saw her watery eyes were as clear as springs. When she saw herself waking up, she clapped her hands happily and ran out of the house, shouting, "Grandma, grandma, beautiful sister wake up!" Yes, my beautiful sister is awake."

She struggled to sit up, feeling that her head was as uncomfortable as being stepped on by a hundred elephants, and her body was more painful as if being stepped on by ten thousand elephants.

There was a dull pain in her heart, and she couldn't help coughing a few times, feeling a fishy sweetness in her mouth, as if coughing up blood.

Only then did Fang Xiling remember that she drank too much last night and seemed to have said a lot.

By the way, didn't she drink with Mu Shengyan?What about him?Why is only myself here, and where is this place?
Fang Xiling struggled to get out of bed, but the little girl came in with a blind mother-in-law.

"Girl, you are awake."

The old woman groped her way with a bamboo pole and slowly came to the bedside.

"Grandma, where is this?"

"Sister, it was my father who saved you. You fell into the trap my father dug last night." The little girl answered.

"Girl, this is Taoyuan Village. Last night you accidentally broke into the trap set by my son. He went to the mountain this morning and saw you fainted in the pit, so he carried you back." The old woman explained.

"Taoyuan Village?"

Fang Xiling just came to Beijing, so she doesn't know where Taoyuan Village is, and she can't remember why she fell into someone else's trap.

"Girl, are you hungry? Xue'er, hurry up and get a bowl of rice for big sister." The old lady raised her head and said to the little girl beside her.

After hearing what her grandma said, the little girl ran over and took a large rough bowl, filled a bowl of yellow sticky porridge from the pot on the ground, and brought it to Fang Xiling.

"Sister, this is corn porridge. Grandma cooked it for you specially." The little girl looked at the corn porridge and swallowed before saying.

"Sister is not hungry, Xue'er eat."

Fang Xiling only felt a dull pain in his chest, and he woke up with a hangover, so he had no appetite to eat at all.

After hearing her words, Xue'er didn't dare to eat, and looked up at grandma, as if she was waiting for grandma's approval.

"Xue'er, put it aside first, and eat when my sister is hungry."

This was the last bit of edible food in the family. There was nothing left to entertain guests, so the grandma cruelly took out a handful of corn dregs that had been stored for several months and boiled them into porridge for guests.

How could Cher eat the food prepared for the guests?
Grandma was cruel and told Xueer to put the rice aside.

Fang Xiling looked at the family, she didn't have any food to eat, and she wanted to leave the food to her. How could she refuse such enthusiasm?
"Xue'er, come here." Fang Xiling called Xue'er over, pulled her hand, took the porridge, took a small mouthful by herself, and put another large spoonful into Xue'er's mouth.

Xue'er shook her head, and pushed the porridge in front of Fang Xiling again, "Sister, eat it, grandma said you are sick, if you don't eat, you will never get better."

"Grandma, at home..."

Fang Xiling wanted to ask why the family was so poor, and who else was in the family, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't open her mouth.

"Hey, girl, our family was not so poor before. A few years ago, Taoyuan Village was also considered a rich place. At that time, everyone still had land to grow and food to eat. Now there is nothing, we can only rely on Hunting for a living. The prey on the mountain can’t feed a village, so it’s like this.” He said that life was difficult, but there was still a faint smile in his eyes.

Fang Xiling looked at the old woman and felt that she was really amazing. Facing the difficulties of life, it was really not easy for her to have such a smile.

"What about your land, why can't you farm it now?" Fang Xiling asked doubtfully.

"That happened a few years ago. Originally, our land here grew very well. The grain grown in our village was not only enough to eat, but also sold. Then the county magistrate came and said that the imperial court would take back our land. Let us plant it, and then gave us some money as compensation, and asked us to use it to do some small business. But that little money is not enough for business. After a while, everyone’s money was spent, so we had to think of other ways gone."

"I also heard that a feng shui master came to the village and said that the feng shui in Taoyuan Village is good. However, this matter was found out by a senior official in Beijing, who was going to build a tomb here. Everyone said, It was the high official who cheated us of our land. Who knows?"

The old lady still smiled faintly.

"Has the land been sold?" Fang Xiling murmured.

"No, it's not what we want to sell. The money is compensation from the court." The old woman corrected.

"Mother, what are you talking about?" A man in cloth clothes with a fur draped over his body came in and interrupted their conversation, "Mother, don't say this in the future, have you forgotten about the tiger?"

After hearing what her son said, the old woman fell silent for a moment, and said nothing about the land occupation.

"By the way, I saw a lot of people in official uniforms outside the village just now. They knocked on doors from door to door, and they didn't know what they were here for. Mom, you and Xue'er don't go out if you have nothing to do."

When it comes to officers and soldiers, the man looks worried. They are all ordinary people, and they are most afraid of dealing with government officials.It is said that the people do not fight with the government, and if the common people want to live a stable life, it is best not to get involved with the government.

The man looked at Fang Xiling, saw that the clothes she was wearing were very expensive, and thought she must not be an ordinary girl.

Could it be because of her that those people came to the village?
For a while, the man thought a lot.

"Brother, I think they are here to look for me. They are good people, so you don't have to worry." Fang Xiling thought that she hadn't returned all night, so Mu Shengyan should have sent someone to look for her.

At this moment, there was a sound of horseshoes outside the house, and there seemed to be many people in the yard.

Hearing the sound, the man rushed out of the door immediately, just as someone outside shouted, "Is there anyone in the room?"

Fang Xiling heard Mu Lian's voice, and responded, "Mulian, I'm in the room."

Fang Xiling struggled to get out of bed, and wanted to go outside, but bumped into someone who came, and looked up, it was Mu Shengyan.She didn't expect Mu Shengyan to come to her in person.

"Ling'er, how are you, are you okay?"

Seeing that Fang Xiling's face was pale, and there were traces of blood on the corner of his mouth.
